Dueñas Aguilar of Mesquite, Texas joined the Army in 2018 and came to Fort Campbell on the Kentucky border, Tennessee a year later.
She was a member of the 101st Fighter Air Brigade in the 101st Airborne Division.
An autopsy report from the Montgomery County Prosecutor's office said Dueñas Aguilar suffered 68 stab wounds to the neck and upper body.
Prosecutors ruled the cause of death as the cause of the murder as a result of a sudden neck injury.
